Please continue to post your images. They are a welcome source of color
and intricate, though-provoking shapes during these dreary winter months!
Now that I have Factory Restored my computer, I hope to try DOSBOX
fairly soon, and calculate some images based on yours, too.
I know that there are others out there who are viewing your images -- in
a more passive sort of way -- they're just not "jumping up and down" and
celebrating them very loudly...

I interpret this to mean that I should post this to

I have some concern about the email systems and / or list

I don't think I've seen characters thrown away -- just lines

Subject: RE: [Fractint] Tedious formula
Hi Hal,
As I'm having a slight problem with the email to this group , I
I shall attempt to send to you.
I might be able to replace the exp with temp*temp.
To be really accurate exp() is what's used , however to
get a general idea as to what's going on your recommendation
has merit.
I tried setting the initial (x,y) to (0,0) , I managed to get a
few more iterations , however the overflow problems
remain.
Setting (p,h) to a small value provides a few more iterations,
however the output isn't quite what I expected ; I may need
to use a circuit simulator , like TopSpice to determine what
the output is meant to look like.
The equation is a second order , very stiff non linear differential
equation ,
I haven't been able to find an analytical solution to this
upon the internet.
You're right about the reuse of x and y , however the
first (x,y) values are outside the main loop also this type
of coding isn't different from the Volterra Lotka formula
file that comes standard with Fractint.
I'm fairly certain that alteration of (x,y) within the main
loop is correct.
Nevertheless I shall try your recommendation.
The q value is reused , within the main loop , however
I'm not expecting any difficulty in doing so ; however I
can also change that.
The variable t1 is an independent time variable , used
when calculating the value of sin() ; the input function.
I'm now pondering how I might do a two loop iteration
within Fractint ; can't figure out how it might be done.
The circuit supposedly generates a rectified sine wave ;
however I really need to look at the circuit simulator results.
This is all a bit of a jigsaw puzzle.
I'm including my formula file for the diode model as this
illustrates how I dealt with the exp() term in a simpler instance.

This is a model of a diode , as an electronic
component .
It utilizes Newton's method to solve a non-linear
equation ; known as the ideal diode or Shockley equation .
The very basic form of this equation is :
i = Ids*(exp(Vs/(n*Vt))-1)
where ,
Q = 1.6*(10^-19) Electronic Charge .
K = 1.38*(10^-23) Boltzman's constant .
T = Absolute Temperature , in Kelvins .
T = 273 [K] + degreesC
For degreesC = 25 , Vt ~= 0.025 [v]
Ids = Saturation current .
Vs = Applied , source , voltage .
n = Ideality factor = ( 1 to 2 ) .
Vt = K * T / Q Thermionic Voltage .
A more realistic model of a diode will include the finite
ohmic resistance of the leads .
A parallel conductance is also modeled , as this speeds
the convergence of Newton's method .
Therefore the circuit we're modelling looks like this .
i -->
----------------------------,
' |
| -------------------,
| | .---.
Vs - D --- | | Gm
--- /_\ |___|
| |__________________|
| |
| .---.
| | | Rs
| |___|
'----------------------------'
Where D is represented by the ideal diode equation .
Now the total current , i , flowing through this
circuit is :
i = Ids*(exp((Vs-i*Rs)/(n*Vt))-1) + Gm*(Vs-i*Rs)
This equation needs to be solved in terms of i and
be put in a form that can be readily and accurately
solved through Newton's method .
The steps involved are :
1)
Let log(x) = (Vs-i*Rs)/(n*Vt)
2)
Solve log(x) = (Vs-i*Rs)/(n*Vt) in terms of i .
i = -(n*Vt*log(x)-Vs)/Rs
3)
Substitute the expression for i , from (2) into
i = Ids*(exp((Vs-i*Rs)/(n*Vt))-1) + Gm*(Vs-i*Rs)
-(n*Vt*log(x)-Vs)/Rs = Ids*(x-1) + Gm*(Vs--((n*Vt*log(x)-Vs)/Rs)*Rs)
-(n*Vt*log(x)-Vs)/Rs = Ids*(x-1) + Gm*((n*Vt*log(x)/Rs)*Rs)
(Vs-n*Vt*log(x))/Rs = Ids*(x-1) + Gm*(n*Vt*log(x))
4)
Solve (3) for x ,
x = -((Gm*n*Rs*Vt+n*Vt)*log(x)-Vs-Is*Rs)/(Is*Rs),Is*Rs,1);
5)
Find the derivative of (4) in terms of x .
1 = -(Gm*n*Rs*Vt+n*Vt)/(Is*Rs*x)
6)
Now Newton's iteration formula is :
x = x - f(x) / f '(x) , where f '(x) == d
f(x) / dx .
7)
For this example :
f(x) = x
= -((Gm*n*Rs*Vt+n*Vt)*log(x)-Vs-Is*Rs)/(Is*Rs),Is*Rs,1)
and
f '(x) = 1 = -(Gm*n*Rs*Vt+n*Vt)/(Is*Rs*x)
8)
Therefore Newton's iteration formula for this example is :
x = x - ( -((Gm*n*Rs*Vt+n*Vt)*log(x)-Vs-Is*Rs)/(Is*Rs),Is*Rs,1) -
x )/( -(Gm*n*Rs*Vt+n*Vt)/(Is*Rs*x)-1)
9)
Simplifying (8)
x = x -( (-Ids*Rs-Vs)*x + Ids*Rs*x*x + (n+Gm*n*Rs)*Vt*x*log(x) ) /
( (n + Gm*n*Rs)*Vt+Ids*Rs*x )
Substitute
u = Gm*n*Rs*Vt+n*Vt
vr = Ids*Rs
x = x-( -(Vs+vr)*x + vr*x*x + u*x*log(x) )/(vr*x+u))
In this logarithmic format overflow , and possibly underflow , is
avoided .
10 )
We need to be able to convert x back to i , to do this we use the
inverse of the original
substitution :
log(x) = (Vs-i*Rs)/(n*Vt)
Solving for i ,
i = - ( log(x)*(n*Vt) - Vs ) / Rs
Substitute
Pt = n*Vt
i = - ( log(x)*Pt - Vs ) / Rs
Between successive iterations of Newton's formula
the previous value of i is compared with the present,
if the absolute difference is less than a predefined
tolerance , Pd , then the iteration stops .
Vs is a complex voltage source , possibly equivalent
to a multi phase voltage source .
This is a basic diode model and doesn't include the
effects of diode junction capacitance .
For small voltages a purely exponential representation
of the diode model may converge quicker than the
logarithmic and still remain accurate .
The logarithmic model has been implemented as a BASIC
language program and compared with data from a SPICE
simulation , for a real voltage source , there is
good agreement .
For a Complex voltage source , the few samples
generated from the BASIC program are in good agreement
with those from MAXIMA CAS .

The floating point option needs to be selected ,
512 iterations , or more , should be selected .
Also a logarithmic palette .
Minibrot structures aren't immediately apparent at
the default parameter settings .
A parameter setting of :

shows embedded minibrots and spirals , weather this
is relevant in a real diode is unknown .
You might be able to locate minibrots elsewhere on
the map .

Very good!
Here are a few more wild and crazy debugging ideas:
[exp] grows quite large after one or two iterations...
Here's an odd idea. Could you temporarily replace the
exp with a function that doesn't grow so quickly -- just
to get some results to look at? Perhaps a power?
So, instead of:
q = exp( s*a1*x )
you could try something like:
temp = s*a1*x
q = temp * temp
or:
temp = s*a1*x
q = temp * temp * temp * temp
q would then grow (or shrink for "temp" values less
than one,) but not in such a violent way. Using even
numbers of "temp" multiplied together always makes
its sign always be positive -- like the result of an exp().
What does the physics of the RLC circuit say about the
use of the exp() ?
I'm also wondering if the initial x and y are meant to be 0 and 0 and v =
(x,y) .
That's certainly easy to try -- but the significance of
doing this ought to be thought about, as well.
Here's an odd observation -- x and y get used for two
different purposes:
z = pixel
x = real(z)
y = imag(z)
and also:
c = x+h*(u+b)
d = y + h*(w + s*a1*b*b + s*b2*q*b + s*b3*b + b2*q*v + b1*q + s*b1)
x = c
y = d
z = x*x + y*y
Might the 2nd place where x and y are used need to
be xtemp and ytemp? It looks like the values of x and y
possibly needing to be constant during the calculation
of a pixel might be getting compromised by their
reuse -- unless that re-usage is intentional,
Also, I note that q is used in two different calculations:
This re-usage may or may not be intentional...
q = exp(s*a1*x )
. . .
q = exp(s*a1*a )
Note that the color map could be useful for debugging
when you get to the stage where you're looking at
resultant images.
Perhaps you could have a map that has big color
changes in adjacent lower values to be able to
better see what is going on in the initial iterations.
Is the image supposed to somehow visually depict
the ringing of a diode-clamped RLC circuit?

Your tidy up is good , for some reason I was having difficulty
with negative exponents.
Presently I'm using maxima cas to look at the values that exp(q)
takes , and indeed it grows quite large after one or two iterations;
to such an extent that maxima runs out of digits when printing.
Without going into the details of the underlying equations , I
encountered a similar difficulty a number of years ago when I wrote
LnDioGH.frm ; do a web search you should be able to find the code.
I'm also wondering if the initial x and y are meant to be 0 and 0 and v =
(x,y) .

Albrecht, this series (58, 59, 60) is a nice balance of
detail vs larger structure on multiple size scales. Nice
colors, too. 59 and 60 have striking, unusual large

58 is a more familiar overall "Medusa-like" shape, but
set in an unusually-detailed background.
In 59, the dark gold colors next to the greens is very
pleasant.
To me, the bold, arched legs in 60 are very commanding.
